The other part of the series of two drawings "Can You Still Remember Me?" [link]

I guess this might be a bit sensitive topic for the fandom, dunno. But anyway, I killed the mane six. I knew this might not get a lot of attention, and even less appreciation. But I decided to draw it anyway. This is the way I see how things would go. The six will die, like everyone else. Meanwhile Spike probably having his "dragon sleep" or whatever. Sleeping for a few hundred years and growing up somewhere in the mountains. When he wakes up all his friends are already dead. What about the princesses? I don't think Spike would keep contact with them. I've always thought that he's somewhat afraid of them. And a dragon near Canterlot would probably cause panic. That's how I want to imagine it.

I apologize for not asking you about this, but as I was checking to see when you were last on, I noticed you'd left for what's likely going to be several months. I'd like to use this image as a cover for a story on FIMfiction.net. If you ever get back and see this, please let me know if you'd like me to cease using this as the cover image. Again, I apologize. You will be cited. ~L.V.K.

Truly, this is a masterpiece for MLP. Everywhere you see happy, go-lucky fan-art, but to see something so beautifully sad and wonderfully rendered... It takes my breath away. No drawn out sorrow, no pool of tears, no gore, no violence, just a true testament to a wonderful friendship. Elegant yet simple, melancholic with a touch of nostalgia, and above all heart-rendingly sad. Perhaps I am insane, but I do not find this depressing. I find it beautiful. I can picture Spike laying the roses on the grave: "Even in death, you are still my best friends." And then without another word he departs, perhaps never to return. You have done a magnificent job with this. Thank you.

This is a very plausible scenario. Though I would imagine that Spike would mature beyond any childish fears of the princesses and could take a position as a guardian of Canterlot if not Equestria. There would be many advantages to having a dragon on your side after all.

Those sad feels, man. The good pieces with this theme always make my heart seize a bit from the sad. But when I feel like that, I always remember that as long as we remember someone in our hearts and think of the good times, even if it hurts, the joy we had will always outweigh any pain. That's always how I imagine Spike in these works; his heart hurts and he misses them, but he'll never forget them and always cherish the time they had.

I wonder if any one of his friend's decedents trying to find Spike if he have the knowledge of friendship. The reason I said this because it would be interesting that one of the dependence want's to learn more about the meaning of friendship or other.

"Time passes, people move... Like a river's flow, it never ends... A childish mind will turn to noble ambition... Young love will become deep affection...The flow of time is always cruel... Its speed seems different for each person, but no one can change it... A thing that doesn't change with time is a memory of younger days..."

The Mane Siix's ashes were stolen by the Yakuzas, who did put it in a vase, freshly painted in copper, brass and sewer rat blood, which was then stolen by Vinnie and almost annihilated by the Soviet Army, due to the fact that everyone now hates the latter, which the ashes were retrieved in a local gynecologist's house, who is also an ash maniac, where he also turns ash into glass and pokéflutes, which one of them was used to wake up a Snorlax who also inhaled bits of the ashes, giving it asthma and also weakening it, giving a pokémon trainer the chance to catch another one, which he also inhaled the mane six's "stolen" ashes, renaming him as "Ash Ketchum", so that the legacy of the Mane Six be remembered by all who heard the name "Ash Ketch

Despite several good attempts, the pony fandom has never before managed to make me emotional. But this is different. It's just...beautiful. So much heart in such a little space. I would make a joke about 'right in the feels', but I feel that would be disrespectful or something. It's a sad piece, but not depressing. More...somber? Reflective? I can't explain it. More importantly, it's not so forced and over-the-top like most 'sad' pony art seems to me. Good show, old chap. Good show indeed.
